That is a nice concept idea man.
I wouldnāt count out the possibility. That movie shaped so much about MK. MK11 still gives the movie shout outs.

I loved MK when I was a kid and even played the 3d games, but man, MK9-11 are the best the series has ever been imo. They really transitioned into making the games like full on martial arts fight scenes and it ok if people donāt like that, but it makes them a lot more fun to play and watch because of it.

They made them look like cheap, western made martial arts B movie fight scenes with some weak ass looking posed and animation. I guess its fun if you like that, but it looks weak if you grew up watching actual Asian martial arts flicks.

Funny how the movie soundtrack is fuckin legendary but none of the gamesā soundtracks are memorable in any way.
Itās something Iāll never get, like not even the recent games can get any decent tunes? Why is MK always lacking in that area?

I mean, the pacing of that fight in the movie does resemble that of, say, MkX.

I was one of those cool kids who had a multi-disc CD player in their room. My 3 disc shuffle go-toās were the MK1 movie sound track, Spawn the movie soundtrack and 1st TMNT movie soundtrack. Iād listen to them a lot while writing, drawing or deck testing for whatever card game I was obsessed with

I havenāt recalled any decent music since MK4.
Itās weird that whole theyāve improved in many ways, music has taken a backseat.
Injustice music is slightly better but not by much imo.
I had the same reaction. Well, a little more muted. But I definitely said to myself "Oh, this is gonna be goodā¦"
And it was.

MK1-3 got memorable tracks. Itās when the series went 3D that the soundtrack became forgettable.

I donāt think Mortal Kombat has had really good music in ages and Iām one of the bigger fans of the series youāre likely to meet. Deception was all right, I guess?
Itās quite honestly a masterclass in āHow to introduce your protagonist in a video gameā.

Yea Ghost of Tsushima does a really good job of setting up everything you will be spending the game doing and why you are motivated to do it.

Started Trials of Mana remake last night. Only played it for about an hour or so before going to bed and Iām playing it right now. So far I really like it. Iāve always enjoyed the simplicity of the mana seriesā combat system.
I played the original here and there via emulators but have never played the full game so Iām going in blind basically.
I picked Duran as my protag then Riesz and Hawkeye as my companions. I donāt know if that was a good choice but in my mind it made sense.
- Duran is the tank
- Riesz can support everyone and attack when needed (I also picked her cause sheās cute and they gave her Ara Ara eyes lol)
- Hawkeye is secondary attacker but since he increases drop rates than hopefully more often than not Iāll have more healing items than what I need.
Weāll see how it goes. I just met Charlotte in the cave before Wendel. Iām kinda sad I didnāt choose her to be a companion. Sheās super funny and adorable.
My one real complaint about the game is that the voice acting is super hit or miss.
